I don't think that anybody should be ruling in or ruling out anything while we are conducting diplomacy.

Lucifer Wages Rebellion Wars: Rules A Mud World

a world of historical mysteries
a world of hidden mysteries
a world of political mysteries

a world of conspiracy fact

never in my lifetime
could I ever truthfully say
the land was without war

many wars exist continually
somewhere in various locations
shifting across chess board earth

symbolically in lost Eden
in a state of lost paradise
in a state of bodily perfection

in a measure of favoured land
in a measure of favoured time
chosen land existed without war

before Adam and Eve were expelled
before the land before them was cursed
in their expelled wanderings into cursed world

before this Lucifer had already been expelled
before this Lucifer was within lunar orbit bound
Lucifer waging rebellion wars rules a mud world

raging like a roaring lion seeking souls to bind

death is individual
death is soul specific
death claims communities nations

wages of sin are death?
death claims all sinners?
death claims all earth born souls?

yet symbolically
what will the death
of the globe be?

a revelation of pestilence, hunger, famine?
as under global warming storms our crops erode?
death fire hunger famine signs of Lucifer’s rebellion war?

contrast is the blessing
of innocence fallen curse of greed

Bobby McFerrin

I did the one concert, and I was not bitten by the conducting bug, and I thought I was done, but then the phone started to ring, and gradually, over time, I started conducting more and more. Now a third of my performances are with orchestras.

You can do a lot with diplomacy, but with diplomacy backed up by force you can get a lot more done.

And we ought to work our diplomacy first and I think it's a reason it's going to respond increasingly to our diplomacy particularly with the president's direct involvement in the peace process, and I think that's extraordinarily important.

Yebus

Where do come from my love?
And of the swarm of bees and honey around you;
For the customary for the bride and bridegroom are ready,
And i am using diplomacy to meet your love.

The man who appeared to me came again and,
Of the thirty friends for his thirty linen garments;
For the time of the wheat harvest is near and,
I will use diplomacy to meet your love.

I am very powerful like the sun but,
Your beauty had met my love like the bees around you;
And the summer is right here in the land of love.

Come and share with me and,
Come and let us play in the garden of love;
For i am Yebus from a land far away!
But i will always seek for you.

Poisonos girls

Wars are not won merely by bravery
You may have large army of infantry or cavalry
Wars may bring destruction and misery
It is useless, senseless and simply unnecessary

War can be won by use of diplomacy
May settle problem and establish supremacy
On one side threat and other side peace advocacy
Open field for sending state to insolvency

How many lives may be lost in process?
Atrocities, torture and force used in excess
No horrified tales to find its way to world
Deaths, hunger, poverty only to emerge in cold

Modern warfare involves great precision
But lacks firmness and vision or decision
Faulty planning and error leads to war
Nobody thinks of war and what is meant for!

Our ancestors had great vision ands reason
Boundaries were fully secured in all the seasons
Prosperity all over and no worry for invasion
Death penalty for robbery and high treason

Girls were used for sabotage in neighbourhood
They were reared and fed the poisonous food
Sent with mission to kill the easy target
Kingdoms sent into jittery and preparedness forget

Many kingdoms were simply raged to ground
The real reason was not ascertained or found
Poisonous girls played their part as sacred duty
They were not ashamed or felt pity

It is nature’s law that simply allow
Big fishes go to small one to swallow
It is continuous process and goes on
We simply catch the mood and act upon

Big kingdoms used to adopt same way
In long run it stood ground and used to pay
Little kingdoms lost their territory and freedom
This might be considered as tactics and wisdom

Modern diplomacy lack teeth have no such tactics
It only thrives and relies upon figures and statistics
Brutal use of force or aggression is only way in politics
Sovereign states are free to determine course of action
Territorial integrity and freedom should invite no reaction

Blessed Are The Peacemakers

There are those who believe
ridicule sarcasm argument
loud dominating discourse
designed to intimidate

are paramount
to achieving their goals
their dark agenda
this is a grave fault

critical matters of severity
are best severed
by a diplomacy
of respect courtesy patience

acknowledging
attempting to understand
all complexities
of conflict problems

did you never
think to stop
(to listen?
to learn?)


Continued disagreement
may result in atrocities
war mistaken diplomacy
by other more aggressive means.

Do we really
want to pay this price
spilling the blood
of vibrant youthful sons?


A blood sacrifice
to ransom our souls
and spiritual guidance
was painfully given

two thousand
years ago.
Many cultures
great thinkers

before and after have constantly
espoused this same message
across centuries of violent upheavals

Life is Everything

Diplomacy has gone
with the wind
encased in bullets
and strapped on bombs
Life is worth nothing

Money is everything

Blood soaked money
in chests locked up
in vaults guarded by
expendable life

Money is everything

Rehabilitation has failed
addiction is my prediction
Social programs in decay
what do these presidential
candidates have to say

Money is everything

Life is everything
Without it we'd have
nothing to fight for
There would be nothing
we wouldn't've survived
the tests of time to
presently fail.
It is life that
we live with
Stop death
Diplomacy now

Life is not worthless
Money is not everything
Life is everything
Protect life first

Peace MaGents!

A quiet mind is richer than a crown,
A smiling face is unfriendly to a frown,
The smiling sun is home at a village and also in town
And a flag of harmony will never carelessly fall down...
Peace MaGents!

Life is one short piece none dares to miss:
when ants work and snakes hiss,
when uncle gives a hand to niece,
when you and I unite in perfect peace;
Peace MaGents!

A heart content breeds relief -
Relief so good as spicy beef -
Spicy beef cut like unto a leaf -
A leaf that dries up not, only if:
only if there is peace in all our lands,
Peace MaGents!

Diplomacy is not a diploma but a quality,
So, let us no longer show partiality
but let's work together for equality
And sail together in a ship of amity -
Peace MaGents!

Together controlling our emotions,
Together sharing our notions,
Together destroying all factions,
Together tackling all the devil's sanctions
And, lo, together pursuing goodwill actions,
Peace MaGents!

Let our hearts melt with love and no longer freeze,
Let our nerves receive only a diplomacy breeze,
Let our hands hold one and two release
so that the spirit of UBUNTU will never cease,
Peace MaGents!

Peace is a cake of an enormus size,
As far as I do realize,
So let's hold the knife together and rise
So that the world sees we're wise - not otherwise!
Peace MaGents!

Come let us reason together, and think.
Hurry, let's join our hands and link,
Let the sons and daughters of the soil not wink
'till all worms of violence and hatred sink.
Peace MaGents!

Words

Ruling Nations is Power
Ruling Minds is Wisdom
Ruling Hearts is Divine.

Being good to oneself is just the beginning
Being good to your loved ones is midway
Being good to all is the final destination.

Knowing about world is Knowledge
Knowing oneself is Enlightment
Knowing God is Mystical.

Cherish The Day

you're ruling the way that i move
and i breathe your air
you only can rescue me
this is my prayer

if you were mine
if you were mine
i wouldn't want to go to heaven

i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
you won't catch me running
you're ruling the way that i move
you take my air

you show me how deep love can be

you're ruling the way that i move
and i breathe your air
you only can rescue me
this is my prayer

i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
you won't catch me running
i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
won't run away

you show me how deep love can be
you show me how deep love can be
this is my prayer

i cherish the day
i won't go astray
i won't be afraid
won't run away
won't shy

i cherish the day
i won't go astray

i cherish the day
i cherish the day
i cherish the day
i cherish the day

Cant Get Enough

Again its around seven
Im burning like a candlelight
I dont know where Im going
But Im ready for this night
Youd better run for cover
Before I start to smile
No way theres time for wasting
Never walk in a line
Never walk in a line
Oh yeah
And I just keep going
Forget these boring times
And Im hungry for desire
No way to live in a line
Youd better run for cover
Before I start to smile
No way theres time for wasting
Never walk in a line
Reckless and mean Im ruling the scene - I never get enough
Acting the night - Im gone with the light - I cant
Get enough
I never get enough
Again its around seven
Im burning like a candlelight
I dont know where Im going
But Im ready for this night
Reckless and mean Im ruling the scene - I never get enough
Acting the night - Im gone with the light - I cant
Get enough
Reckless and mean Im ruling the scene - I never get enough
Acting the night - Im gone with the light - I cant
Get enough
I never get enough

To The Memory Of The Right Honourable Lord Talbot, Late Chancellor Of Great Britain. Addressed To His Son.

While with the public, you, my Lord, lament
A friend and father lost; permit the muse,
The muse assigned of old a double theme,
To praise the dead worth and humble living pride,
Whose generous task begins where interest ends;
Permit her on a Talbot's tomb to lay
This cordial verse sincere, by truth inspired,
Which means not to bestow but borrow fame.
Yes, she may sing his matchless virtues now -
Unhappy that she may. - But where begin?
How from the diamond single out each ray,
Where all, though trembling with ten thousand hues,
Effuse one dazzling undivided light?
Let the low-minded of these narrow days
No more presume to deem the lofty tale
Of ancient times, in pity to their own,
Romance. In Talbot we united saw
The piercing eye, the quick enlightened soul,
The graceful ease, the flowing tongue of Greece,
Joined to the virtues and the force of Rome.
Eternal wisdom, that all-quickening sun,
Whence every life, in just proportion, draws
Directing light and actuating flame,
Ne'er with a larger portion of its beams
Awakened mortal clay. Hence steady, calm,
Diffusive, deep, and clear, his reason saw,
With instantaneous view, the truth of things;
Chief what to human life and human bliss
Pertains, that noblest science, fit for man:
And hence, responsive to his knowledge, glowed
His ardent virtue. Ignorance and vice,
In consort foul, agree; each heightening each;
While virtue draws from knowledge brighter fire.
What grand, what comely, or what tender sense,
What talent, or what virtue was not his;
What that can render man or great, or good,
Give useful worth, or amiable grace?
Nor could he brook in studious shade to lie,
In soft retirement, indolently pleased
With selfish peace. The syren of the wise,
(Who steals the Aonian song, and, in the shape
Of Virtue, woos them from a worthless world)
Though deep he felt her charms, could never melt
His strenuous spirit, recollected, calm,
As silent night, yet active as the day.
The more the bold, the bustling, and the bad,
Press to usurp the reins of power, the more
Behoves it virtue, with indignant zeal,
To check their combination. Shall low views
Of sneaking interest or luxurious vice,

Na Tian Piet's Sha'er Of The Late Sultan Abu Bakar Of Johor

In the name of God, let his word begin:
Praise be to God, let praises clear ring;
May our Lord, Jesus Christ's[8] blessings
Guide my pen through these poetizings!

This sha'er is an entirely new composition
Composed by myself, no fear of imitation.
It's Allah's name, I will keep calling out
While creating this poem to avoid confusion.

This story I'm relating at the present moment
I copy not, nor is it by other hands wrought;
Nothing whatsoever is here laid out
That hereunder is not clearly put forth.

Not that I am able to create with much ease,
To all that's to come I'm yet not accustomed;
Why, this sha'er at this time is being composed
Only to console my heart which is heavily laden.

I'm a peranakan[9], of Chinese origin,
Hardly perfect in character and mind;
I find much that I can not comprehend,
I'm not a man given to much wisdom.

Na Tian Piet[10] is what I go by name
I have in the past composed stories and poems;
Even when explained to - most stupid I remain
The more I keep talking the less I understand.

I was born in times gone by
In the country known as Bencoolen[11];
Indeed, I am more than stupid:
Ashamed am I composing this lay.

Twenty-four years have gone by
Since I moved to the island of Singapore;
My wife and children accompanied me
To Singapore, a most lovely country.

I stayed in Riau[12] for some time
Together with my wife and children;
Two full years in Riau territory,
Back to Singapore my legs carried me.

At the time when Acheh[13] was waging war
I went there with goods to trade,
I managed to sell them at exhorbitant prices:
Great indeed were the profits I made.

The Four Seasons : Autumn

Crown'd with the sickle and the wheaten sheaf,
While Autumn, nodding o'er the yellow plain,
Comes jovial on; the Doric reed once more,
Well pleased, I tune. Whate'er the wintry frost
Nitrous prepared; the various blossom'd Spring
Put in white promise forth; and Summer-suns
Concocted strong, rush boundless now to view,
Full, perfect all, and swell my glorious theme.
Onslow! the Muse, ambitious of thy name,
To grace, inspire, and dignify her song,
Would from the public voice thy gentle ear
A while engage. Thy noble cares she knows,
The patriot virtues that distend thy thought,
Spread on thy front, and in thy bosom glow;
While listening senates hang upon thy tongue,
Devolving through the maze of eloquence
A roll of periods, sweeter than her song.
But she too pants for public virtue, she,
Though weak of power, yet strong in ardent will,
Whene'er her country rushes on her heart,
Assumes a bolder note, and fondly tries
To mix the patriot's with the poet's flame.
When the bright Virgin gives the beauteous days,
And Libra weighs in equal scales the year;
From Heaven's high cope the fierce effulgence shook
Of parting Summer, a serener blue,
With golden light enliven'd, wide invests
The happy world. Attemper'd suns arise,
Sweet-beam'd, and shedding oft through lucid clouds
A pleasing calm; while broad, and brown, below
Extensive harvests hang the heavy head.
Rich, silent, deep, they stand; for not a gale
Rolls its light billows o'er the bending plain:
A calm of plenty! till the ruffled air
Falls from its poise, and gives the breeze to blow.
Rent is the fleecy mantle of the sky;
The clouds fly different; and the sudden sun
By fits effulgent gilds the illumined field,
And black by fits the shadows sweep along.
A gaily chequer'd heart-expanding view,
Far as the circling eye can shoot around,
Unbounded tossing in a flood of corn.
These are thy blessings, Industry! rough power!
Whom labour still attends, and sweat, and pain;
Yet the kind source of every gentle art,
And all the soft civility of life:
Raiser of human kind! by Nature cast,
Naked, and helpless, out amid the woods
And wilds, to rude inclement elements;
With various seeds of art deep in the mind

The Athenaid: Volume II: Book the Seventeenth

Sicinus, long by unpropitious winds
Lock'd in Geræstus, to their fickle breath,
Half-adverse still, impatient spread the sail.
Six revolutions of the sun he spent
To gain Phaleron. To his lord's abode
He swiftly pass'd, when chance his wond'ring eyes
On Aristides fix'd. An open space
Reveal'd the hero, issuing sage commands.
Th' omnipotent artificer of worlds
From chaos seem'd with delegated pow'r
To have entrusted that selected man.
From ashes, lo! a city new ascends,
One winter's indefatigable toil
Of citizens, whose spirit unsubdu'd
Subdues calamity. Each visage wears
A cheerful hue, yet solemn. Through the streets
Successive numbers from adjacent fields
Drive odorif'rous loads of plants and flow'rs,
Which please the manes. Amaranth and rose,
Fresh parsley, myrtle, and whate'er the sun,
Now not remote from Aries in his course,
Call'd from the quick and vegetating womb
Of nature green or florid, from their seats
Of growth are borne for pious hands to weave
In fun'ral chaplets. From the Grecian states,
To honour Athens, their deputed chiefs,
Cleander foremost, throng the public place;
Whence Aristides with advancing speed
Salutes Sicinus: Welcome is thy face,
Good man, thou know'st; from Athens long estrang'd,
Now doubly welcome. In thy looks I read
Important news. Retiring from the crowd,
Swift in discourse, but full, Sicinus ran
Through all the series of his lord's exploits,
Which drew this question: Has thy patron ought
To ask of Aristides? Silent bow'd
Sicinus. Smiling then, the chief pursu'd:


Do thou attend the ceremonial pomp
Of obsequies to morrow; when the slain
At Salamis receive their just reward
From us, survivors by their glorious fall.
I have detain'd thee from Timothea long,
The first entitled to thy grateful news.


Now to that matron, whom beyond himself
He priz'd, Sicinus hastens. At her loom
He finds her placid o'er a web, whose glow
